Abstract

An industrially hardened terahertz electromagnetic transmitter and receiver module (29) is disclosed. The electromagnetic wave module has an optic (30) which relays an optical pulse from the delivery fiber (32) to the terahertz device. The relay optic (30) allows for a greatly reduced optical spot size as compared to the output of the optical fiber. Thus, the sensitivity of the overall system is enhanced by improving the efficiency of the terahertz device. The relay optic (30) allows the small spot of light to be aligned to the electromagnetic transmitter or receiver with sub-micron precision.
